Vitality score
Vitality score 41.3/100 — Partly served (model fr-v0.2).
Confidence: high.
Better served than 77 % of the 16,227 communes of a similar size.
Compare this with communes of a similar size. The score measures how well a place is served relative to its own size band, and larger communes score higher as a rule — so it reads meaningfully against another village, and misleadingly against a town.
Measured but not scored in this model: Market. See the methodology for why.

Dwellings (2023): 463, of which 17.9 % second homes and 10.2 % vacant. [7]

GP (La Chapelle-la-Reine): 4.2 km to the north-west (straight line). [10]

Climate
Where this sits nationally
An average of 21 days a year at or above 30 °C and 48 days at or below 0 °C, over 30 complete years in 1995–2024. [11]
Measured at the NEMOURS weather station, 8.8 km away at 73 m; the village itself is at 73 m. [11]
Muggy days — a dew point at or above 18 °C — average 1 day a summer. [11]
Humidity measured at NEMOURS, 8.8 km away at 73 m, over 28 summers. [11]
An average of 704 mm of rain a year, spread over 120 days — about 5.9 mm on a day it rains. [11]
Rainfall measured at ST-PIERRE-LES-N, 4.3 km away at 117 m. Rainfall is not adjusted for altitude: unlike temperature it has no simple gradient to correct by. [11]
What property sold for
60 houses sold between 2021 and 2025, at a median of 221,955 € — 1,861 € per m² of built surface. [12]
The median across Seine-et-Marne is 2,667 € per m², so this commune sits below it. [12]
These are recorded sale prices, not valuations or asking prices, and a median over five years spans five different markets. Built surface excludes land, which carries much of a rural property's value.

…and in much the same climate
The same match on size and services, narrowed to communes whose summers, winters and summer humidity are all close to Larchant's. All three are required, so this section is absent for the 11.8 % of communes with no humidity station near enough to measure: two temperature axes alone cannot tell a muggy coast from a dry one.
